Design of a robust active fuzzy parallel distributed compensation anti-vibration controller for a hand-glove system [PDF]
Undesirable vibrations resulting from the use of vibrating hand-held tools decrease the tool performance and user productivity. In addition, prolonged exposure to the vibration can cause ergonomic injuries known as the hand-arm vibration syndrome (HVAS).

High-Frequency Vibration from Hand-Held Impact Wrenches and Propagation into Finger Tissue
High-frequency shock-type vibration (HFV) with a frequency content mainly above 1250 Hz, e.g., from impact wrenches, is likely to cause a significant amount of vibration injuries and even hand-arm vibration syndrome.
